Abstract

The main objective of this paper is review on modification parabolic trough solar heater using propylene glycol. Here we will manufacture a solar parabolic heater, generally it is observe that solar panels need space and time and amount of sunlight which is not needed in case of parabolic heater. Thus time is saved due to concentration of sunlight directly on tube. In this project we are using propylene glycol as fluid so it can carry more heat than water. Similarly we use a radiator for purpose of heat exchanger.
